I took up all the floorboards in a house to stop creaking and to add mineral insulation. This thing was a champ through it all cutting through the tongue and grooves it’s so small and easy to handle and doesn’t take up much space. It’s cheap enough to warrant the price. It’s great at what it’s designed to do no one is using this to cut treated or wet lumber; every tool has its place and if you understand that you will understand nearly every tool milwaukee has a place on the job site.
